This statement needs to be broadcast far and wide, 24-7. Everything distilled down to this absolute truth! Of course he doesn't intend to change a change thing, but to broaden and make it worse, like the inheritance tax giveaway etc. Thank you for stating this so succinctly.

He wants to make it even easier for himself and other billionaires to get out of taxes.
Trust me.

We should ask him if him changing the tax-code in a way so he pays more taxes is a smart or a stupid move...
